Melrose is the kind of Scottish Borders town that makes you slow down. A ruined abbey sits at the end of the main street, the three rounded Eildon Hills rise behind it, and the River Tweed loops past on its way to the sea. It’s a place for walks, heritage and long evenings, and a holiday lodge suits it better than a hotel room or a holiday cottage in town.<\/p>\n

There’s no big lodge park in the town itself. The best Melrose lodges are dotted around it in woods and river valleys, all a short drive away. We’ve picked six parks in the Scottish Borders from 13 to 41 minutes out, each with hot tub lodges and dogs welcome, so you can relax under dark skies after a day out. There’s plenty to explore. It’s the perfect escape for a couple, a family or a group of friends.<\/p>\n
